And 2016’s best-performing Asset is….Bitcoin?

[Editors Note: “As I predicted at the end of 2015 in my video ‘Why Bitcoin price could hit all time highs in 2016” With the price at $326 there were so many reasons why Bitcoin was severely undervalued against its NAV. In 2016 they all came to fruition with Bitcoin currently trading at 2016 highs of $940]

“Bitcoin’s market capitalization sailed past $14.5 billion as the price of a single coin traded as high as $913 a coin on Friday, according to Coin Market Cap, as its market capitalization to sail past the $14 billion mark, eclipsing the market value of, say, Twitter Inc”

“The shift in bitcoin’s valuation is only part of the story. Trading volume has also increased dramatically in 2016, peaking at more than $330 million a day over the summer. Finally, the bitcoin market is liquid enough to allow professional traders to enter and exit positions without losing their shirt, as Hayter put it”

What a week for Bitcoin, I talk about the new Bitcoin all-time-highs of $3500, the adoption of segregated witness which catalysed the move and allows Bitcoin to scale, and also my approach and thoughts on the Bcash (BCH) (BCC) market.

Commentary taken from World Crypto Network talk on the 6/08/2017 original video here:

“In this final episode of the Keiser Report from Freedom Fest in Las Vegas, Max and Stacy encounter Peter Schiff in the halls of the convention center and challenge him on bitcoin. Max continues his interview with bitcoin entrepreneur Charlie Shrem to discuss the latest drama and innovation in the cryptocurrency space”

With the news that Bitcoin is finally on the verge of scaling with the activation of Segregated Witness. Bitcoin will soon be able to facilitate many more users and transactions, growing the network and its potential value. …Its bigger than fiat !

If your holding Bitcoin long term, Hardware Wallets such as Trezor and Ledger are a mustto protect your Bitcoin from hacks and eliminate counterparty risk that is present when holding Bitcoin on centralised exchanges.

PROSPER IN THE NEW FINANCIAL PARADIGM

"Embraced as a “renegade currency,” U.S. investors contend Bitcoin protects Americans from a decaying dollar. They acknowledge it also threatens the U.S. Federal Reserve, and other central banks, which control fiat currencies around the world. Bitcoin’s whole point, it seems, is to eliminate central banks and investment middlemen across the globe to create a free market virtual ownership society"
